Chapter 470: Decisive Battle with Pirates
Xie Lin's pupils shrank slightly. He didn't expect to see her here, and in this situation.
Katarina Monroe, who was Schelling's opponent at Hogwarts and the warrior representing Beauxbatons in the Triwizard Tournament, was born into the Monroe family, which is known as the first family in France. That arrogant, cold and strong woman used to pride herself on the glory of her family, standing at the top of the pure-blood wizard aristocracy, and was once loyal to Walpurgis.
But now, she was like a lost dog, being chased relentlessly and in an extremely miserable state.
At this time, Furong gradually saw the scene in the distance clearly, frowned slightly, and said in an uncertain voice: "Xie Lin, is that... Meng Luo?"
Sherin nodded and said softly, "Fleur, stand back and take care of yourself," and in an instant the wand slid from his sleeve into his palm, and he flashed and Apparated between Katarina and her pursuers.
As Sherin disappeared, Barbarossa sneered and waved his hand. A black column of water fell from the sky and headed straight for Katarina. Katarina's eyes turned cold and she swung her wand violently. A black blade flew out and cut the water column in half with a sharp sound of wind.
However, Ge Lang on the other side had already made a move. When he waved his magic wand, the water vapor in the air condensed rapidly, and a stream of water as sharp as a blade suddenly slashed towards her back!
Just as the water blade was about to hit Katarina's back, a white light flashed, and the water blade seemed to have met its natural enemy. It was decomposed into wisps of steam-like magic power and dissipated in the air.
"Who is it?" Barbarossa stopped and shouted coldly.
"Hey, I wondered who it was. Turns out it was my old friend." Xie Ling appeared beside Katarina and the six people. He strolled leisurely with his signature evil smile on his face, as if he didn't take these extremely dangerous black wizards in front of him seriously at all.
"Sharin Malfoy..." Barbarossa whispered the name, his voice hoarse and suppressed.
The remaining five men in black, who were originally aggressive, stopped in unison, pointed their wands at Xie Ling, and were ready for battle, with caution and vigilance in their eyes - these people should have known about Xie Ling's previous battle with Barbarossa, and knew how terrifying this young man who seemed harmless when smiling could be when he was serious.
Xie Lin tilted his head, a slightly mean smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said frivolously: "Barbarossa, how come you are going backwards as you grow older? You use your strength to bully the weak, and you use your numbers to bully the few. You are the pirate king and great mage, but you have to mobilize so many troops to deal with a weak woman?"
Barbarossa's face darkened.
In fact, he had already backed out in his heart.
This was not the first time he faced Xie Ling.
He failed to get any good results in the two consecutive confrontations, and even used up his life-saving trump card. Moreover, in the last decisive battle, Voldemort and Morgan were by his side. If he was alone this time, he would have no confidence in fighting Schelling!
A subconscious fear arose in his heart.
Ge Lang glanced between Xie Lin and Barbarossa, and said coldly: "Barbarossa, is this the Malfoy you mentioned before? He is only one person, and we have six now. Can we..."
Barbarossa was silent for a second, then he slowly shook his head and said, "Don't be careless. He... is an extremely dangerous opponent. Even if we have the advantage in numbers now, the consequences are unpredictable."
Last time, he was able to witness with his own eyes the amazing feat of Xie Lin forming an army alone and sweeping away a hundred Dark Souls. Although those human puppets had been destroyed by him, God knew whether Xie Lin had more.
"Is he... really that strong?" Ge Lang frowned, obviously surprised by Barbarossa's show of weakness. After all, the six of them were all experienced warriors who had walked on the edge of a knife and had been through hundreds of battles. In addition, except for Barbarossa who was a magician, the other five were all elite Aurors. This lineup was even enough to challenge Dumbledore!
(In the original book, Fudge brought two elite Aurors and Umbridge to arrest Dumbledore. This lineup is much stronger than that.)
Xie Lin smiled lazily, glanced at everyone, and said in a playful tone: "It seems that I have a good reputation among you. I am really flattered."
"But..." His voice suddenly turned cold, his eyes sharp as a knife, "Don't you think it's too shameless for a group of you to besiege a lone girl?"
The air suddenly tightened, as if oppressed by an invisible magical force, and the atmosphere on the battlefield froze in an instant!
Katalin looked at Sherin, feeling a mixture of emotions.
This guy... is still the extremely arrogant Shaylin Malfoy!
But she had to admit that he had the qualifications to be so arrogant.
The men in black were the first to attack Xie Ling. Five red lights rushed towards Xie Ling. The guardian ring on Xie Ling's finger flashed a white light, and a protective barrier rose automatically, repelling all five attacks.
At this time, Barbarossa had also finished reciting the spell, and a small cannon appeared, and with a loud "bang", he fired at Schelling.
Sherin had already grabbed Katarina's hand, and the two of them disappeared on the spot.
"Damn it - he already knows how to Apparate!" Barbarossa said angrily. Due to Schelling's young age, he had always ignored the possibility that Schelling knew how to Apparate.
In fact, there are not many wizards who can use Apparition in battle, because the most taboo when Apparating is distraction, and when Apparating in battle, one must distract oneself and pay attention to the enemy's movements, which can easily lead to serious consequences such as "splitting".
Five seconds passed and Xie Ling still didn't appear.
"Could he have escaped?" Ge Lang asked. His idea was normal. Xie Ling was now alone against six people, and he also had to take care of the burden of the injured Katarina. Escape was the right thing to do.
"Don't be careless. This guy is best at attacking his opponent when he least expects it. Everyone should stay vigilant--" Barbarossa said.
"Thunder and lightning!" A white chain came like a long snake, and after hitting one black wizard, it instantly bounced onto another black wizard. The two men only had time to let out a scream before they fell to the ground with convulsions all over their bodies, their eyes rolled back and foam coming out of their mouths.
"It's the Disillusionment Spell!" Barbarossa shouted, "Everyone, stand apart, don't let him have a chance to attack at the same time." Barbarossa quickly realized the power of the Lightning Spell, which is that it can use the conductive effect to attack other nearby targets while hitting a target. "Damn, where is he?" The remaining few people were all experienced warriors, and they quickly cast the "Translucence Spell" on themselves, which could see through all kinds of invisibility magic. For a moment, their pupils all turned into a strange milky white, but the magic that had always been effective in the past did not work this time -
They couldn't see where Schelling was at all.
That's right, while Xie Ling was Apparating, he could actually cast spells at the same time. He cast the "Invisible Phantom Spell" and also activated the invisibility magic on the Supreme Wizard's robe.
With the combination of these two, there is no way to crack it in the world so far!
The first battle between Schelling and Barbarossa was in the narrow cabin space, and the second battle was in the Little Hangleton Cemetery, but the opponent had three magicians at that time. As a result, in the first two battles, Schelling's self-created invisibility magic was never used.
Now, in this vast wasteland, there are only six opponents. Unable to see through Xie Ling's invisibility magic, they can only become prey to be hunted.
"Let me do it!" Barbarossa thrust his magic wand into the ground with great force. With the position where several people were standing as a circle, a vast flood swept from the inside to the outside.
--boom!
The entire wilderness seemed to be swallowed up by huge waves. Streams of water gushed out like floods, turning into a sky-high magical tsunami, sweeping towards the location of Sherin and Katarina.
This move is undoubtedly the best countermeasure against invisibility magic - since it cannot be seen through, use range attacks to force the target out directly!
"Humph."
Xie Ling's eyes turned slightly cold, and he waved his hand without hesitation, and the invisibility magic was instantly lifted. The next second, he and Katarina appeared at the moment of the flood peak, flashed into the air, and avoided the fatal attack!
He looked down at the rolling waves below and sneered, with a sarcastic smile on his face: "Stupid."
The original wilderness land became moist and soft because of Barbarossa's magic, making it most suitable for Sherin to cast terrain-related magic.
Barbarossa raised his head suddenly, his eyes stern.
Oops!
The next moment, Xie Ling's wand pointed without hesitation at the ground that had just been washed by the flood.
——"Muck Transfiguration!"
With a loud bang, the land that had just been soaked by the magical flood suddenly changed. The soft soil seemed to come alive and instantly turned into an unfathomable swamp!
"Damn it! Everyone, retreat!"
Barbarossa and Ge Lang realized the danger almost instantly and immediately tried to Apparate to escape.
But it’s still a step too slow!
Except for Barbarossa and Ge Lang, the others were too late - they were all trapped in the quagmire!
The quagmire was sinking too fast, and they had no time to chant a spell. Their mouths and noses were blocked by the mud. They could only wave their hands around in panic and struggle in fear, but the characteristics of the quagmire made them sink deeper and deeper. In less than a few seconds, their bodies were completely swallowed up.
Xie Ling stood there, using his Amaterasu to search for the enemy. After a while, he confirmed that Barbarossa and Ge Lang had abandoned their companions and fled. He curled his lips in disdain, tutted, and shook his wand, which turned into a golden rope, tied up the four dark wizards, and put them in his suitcase.
Then he looked at Katarina, who was sitting on the ground with a weak look on her face.
……
Catalina had been hunted by Barbarossa and his men for more than ten days. Without adequate food and rest, her body was already close to its limit.
She had already despaired and thought she was going to die, but she didn't expect to run into Xie Ling in this uninhabited wilderness.
But when she saw Xie Ling take care of the pursuer in just a few rounds, her eyes changed from shock to disbelief.
She panted, propped herself up, and spoke hoarsely: "Malfoy...why did you save me?"
Xie Lin looked down at her with a complicated look: "I just happened to be passing by."
Katarina raised her lips in a bitter smile, as if she wanted to say something sarcastic, but her body was too weak to support her any longer, and she fell backwards.
Xie Lin frowned, but still reached out and held her shoulders.
Although he didn't know what she had been through, he could guess what she had been through just by looking at her current appearance.
Furong watched this scene from the side, her eyes flickering slightly, and she said softly: "She is injured, Xie Lin, what should we do?"
Xie Lin was silent for a while, and finally sighed: "Take her away from here first, and then find out what happened."
After saying this, he grabbed the hands of Furong and Katarina, and the three of them disappeared into thin air. (End of this chapter)
